What we’ve found
Insights from the second annual State of Mental Health Report

Concern isn't care
Most Americans say mental health matters more than ever. Yet fewer are getting help, even as anxiety and depression rise.

Social support drives action
People are much more likely to get care when someone in their life does. Support — and IRL examples — really matter.

The gender gap is structural
While men are less likely to seek care, they report higher improvement rates (81%) than women (71%).

Cost keeps people stuck
Financial stress doesn’t just limit access to care — it also worsens mental health, creating a cycle that’s hard to break.
